September 2018

Although Homecoming is usually enjoyed by high school students, a new age group will be dancing their day away at a homecoming of their own. The idea of a senior homecoming came to Dan Ziegler, the agriculture teacher at New Glarus High School. For their FCCLA star event project, Alexa Thayer, Jill Marty and Kortney Peterson, of New Glarus High School, have decided to put this idea into action and for the first time in New Glarus history there will be a Senior Citizen homecoming dance.
